The Last Centaur

最後的半人馬》採用了宏大、描述性的電影配樂風格，以音樂的形式描述了一個因戰爭而與家人失散的半人馬，在隨後的冒險中，最終與家人和朋友團聚的故事。音樂以圓號的莊嚴、抒情主題開始，隨後是雙簧管獨奏。隨後，這一主旋律貫穿整部作品，並不斷發展壯大。橫掃的木管樂器線條和雄渾的銅管樂器扇面捕捉到了戲劇的激動人心和最終的歡樂結局。曲調鏗鏘有力，令人回味無窮！持續時間6:00

原文簡介:
Composed in the style of a grand and descriptive film score, The Last Centaur is a musical depiction of a centaur who is separated from his family by war, the ensuing adventures, and ultimate reunion with his family and friends. The music begins with a stately, lyrical theme in the horns followed by solo oboe. This main theme is then woven throughout the work as it develops and grows with intensity. Sweeping woodwind lines and majestic brass fanfares capture the excitement of the drama and ultimate joyous resolution. Powerful and evocative writing! Dur: 6:00
